Did You Know?

  • Dalkey Island, which owes its name to the Vikings, has been uninhabited for the past two centuries – apart from a herd of wild goats.

  • The Atmospheric Railway ran from Dalkey to Dún Laoghaire harbor, and was the first vacuum railway in the world.

  • Killiney Hill is part of a public park that was opened in 1887 to commemorate Queen Victoria’s jubilee.

Discover a delightful and unspoiled seaside village through this fact-packed compendium. Renowned for its castle, book festival and nearby island, Dalkey and neighbouring Killiney Hill Park have plenty of special places to find and history to uncover.

A reliable reference book and a quirky guide, The Little Book of Dalkey and Killiney can be dipped into time and time again to reveal something new about the people, the heritage and the secrets of this charming coastal area.
